    SubjectRE: arpd not working in 2.4.17 or 2.5.1
    Date
    I have a 2.4 compatible arpd running, but with our
    company being bought by a big US software company
    I'm having trouble convincing management to allow
    the GPL release. It's becoming very important so
    I'm hopeful that I'll be successful shortly, but
    until then I have to be quiet :)

    (Note that Peregrine acquired Loran, and jlayes@loran.com
    is an email address of a former employee, so i'm kind of
    the relevant person to talk to for arpd stuff, because that
    other address won't work :)
